About this project
Description from the program archive
<p>Over the last few years, the programming language Rust has seen a surge in popularity. This has primarily been the case due to its more robust memory management and faster execution when compared to C/C++. Rust’s features are advantageous while building scientific software since there’s often a large amount of data to analyse, and performance is one of the most critical concerns. Hence, Rust is now being applied to the development of bioinformatics tools as well. In the future, these tools will be increasingly used online, and implementation in the Rust language is expected to ensure the safety of these tools. This project aims to demonstrate the suitability of Rust to the development of a simulator for SBML models.</p>
